Great castle to explore, the stories of its haunting are a great talking point as you walk round. The grounds are fantastic offering children a chance to run off any steam. read more

The museum is situated on Fore St and I must warn you it is about half way up quite a steep hill! A room is dedicated to Charles Babbage, probably the most famous person from Totnes. Babbage invented the first computer and children will be interested in how the computer revolution started. He was educaed at Totnes Grammar School, the old school is situated further down the hill. There are other collections at the museum covering a variety of periods, Saxon, Elizabethan and Victorian to name a few. The museum is a very interesting place to visit.

She's good, and very passionate in a quiet way about her craft - a real traditional artisan who will probably carry on learning and experimenting until they pry the clay out of her hands. And she offers value for money - she doesn't do hugely expensive art objects, she makes affordable, useable heart-full objects that will fit on your table or your sideboard. She'll also welcome you with a tea and a talk about all the qualities of ceramics she so admires - and as you buy you can see her workshop and meet a true craftswoman.
This museum is like a little bit of the old-fashioned British tourist industry left over from the…read more1960s, when a typical British Summer holiday would involve driving your petrol-guzzling car around Devon and being entertained by little visitor centres and novelties. It's really rather quaint. However commercial realities have played their part and it isn't perhaps as quaint or picturesque as it may once have been. Teign Valley Glass appear now to make their money by mass-producing simple coloured marbles, but the museum section looks back at a time when glass-blowing and glass-shaping was big business, new, exciting, and a very delicate and sought-after craft. There's also a huge marble run called Snooki, which occupies a whole wall on the inside of the building, in which snooker-ball-sized 'marbles' are constantly circling around a whole variety of different paths in a complex dance. It might sound a bit dull but it's bizarrely captivating, you could watch it for hours. Kids may get frustrated that there isn't much here for them to interact with, it's pretty much all about watching and reading. The shop mainly sells novelties and toys for kids but there is also a 'yard sale' element to it where Teign Valley Glass will sell their seconds (most of which are excellent) at very reduced prices, so it's worth a look. The obligatory cafe is missable.

Plymouth Maids Clog Dancers were established in 1980 and have been entertaining ever since then all…read moreover the South West of England and sometimes far beyond, including overseas! They perform a variety of dances mainly in the style of North West Morris. I was one of the Maids from 1990 until 1995 and thoroughly enjoyed it! They are always on the lookout for new members; these days they practise at the Plymouth City Bus Social Club, Milehouse (at 8.00pm), learning new dances from October to May before performing in public in the summer months (and sometimes in the winter). The blue and white costume is based on the working clothes of a 19th century mill girl, and made by the members themselves. It is personalised by embroidery on the apron (the only half-decent bit of embroidery I've ever achieved!) I have no problem in recommending the Maids to either join as a dancer, or to go along and be entertained!
